A train disruption occurred on Wednesday (10 Apr) evening along the East West Line (EWL).
A passenger tweeted that it was caused by a track fault but another passenger commented on TATA SMRT Facebook that it was due to a Platform Screen Door (PSD) fault at Jurong East; no official announcement was given by the SMRT.
Passengers’ tweets started since 6:20pm:

But at 7:53pm an angry passenger tweeted that the train frequency at Central Business District was still not normal:
And hello @ChannelNewsAsia @TODAYonline @STcom do your jobs there's yet another train breakdown/fault they're not reporting
